War Memorial
There are many places on this earth that could be described as a place of seriousness and reverence. I'm choosing to write about a veteran cemetery. One of my grandfathers was buried in a vitrine cemetery two years ago. At his funeral, because he fought in a war they had a special ceremony for him to show respect to him. They had about maybe ten men do a ceremony for him that involved shooting some rifles in the air and places an American flag over his casket. After the ceremony people had a chance to talk and my dad got to keep the flag and it is now in a case above our entertainment center with his certificate. That was the first funeral my family went to until last December, when my mom's dad passed.
